Chapter 685: Retreat
In such a situation, at the beginning, the miscellaneous beards dared to despise Jurchen nobles such as Yin Keshu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, when Yin Keshu came up with a trick, the miscellaneous beards knew how powerful this former Jurchen general was! Grain, grass and ordnance were immediately asked by him, and a steady stream of them were added to the army, those blunt knives and arrows were replaced with long knives and iron arrowheads, and there were still some rations every day, and Yin Keshu has always been the first soldier, whether it is a patrol sentry, or open the walled fort to collect grain, you can see his figure, often still rushing to the front.
In addition to such kindness, Yinkeshu was also unrelenting, at the beginning, he had to march almost every day, but he did not listen to orders and did not move forward. Privately looting and delaying military aircraft, every day in front of his tent, he has to provoke more than a dozen heads! And I don't know where it came from, a few more Jurchen Mouke joined his command, and the miscellaneous people didn't dare to mutiny even if they wanted to. And even if it is against Yinkeshu, with the Jurchen army on the side, where can they go?
The most important thing is that Yin Keshu also dares to act decisively and bring them constant victories!
Breaking away from the Jurchen brigade and acting resolutely, from the direction of the Lan army, it was like a bamboo, burning and looting all the way, the Southern Dynasty army and horses were scattered, and the people of the Southern Dynasty slaughtered and drove them away like dogs and sheep.
How many children of the Southern Dynasties gave birth to wealth, goods, and grain, and kept transferring them to Ningyuan Village? And Yin Keshu also patted their chests and vouched for them, as long as they obeyed the order, all these looted things were theirs, and no one could take them away!
And the smooth war all the way also made these miscellaneous hus' contempt for the Southern Dynasty reach its peak for a while, and how many dangerous military villages were abandoned without resistance. How many people in the Southern Dynasties can only cry and flee in front of them, and the people who guard the military horses along the way and shoot at them are extremely rare!
In the hearts of these miscellaneous people, in addition to killing and looting, there is a deep hatred, why can you, the weak Southern Dynasties, occupy such a rich place, have so much wealth, and live so rich and peaceful? These goods, these raw mouths, everything in this Southern Dynasty should belong to us! Since you can't hold it, then you should give it up, and we will follow the Jurchens all the way to the south, even if there are Jurchen nobles above our heads, but you southerners, you will be driven by us for generations!
Such arrogance, such jealousy, doubled the bloody desire of these miscellaneous beards, it turned out that there were some half-hearted minds in the Jurchen army, only thinking about the benefits and not wanting to fight a tough battle, as they went all the way south, it became weaker and weaker, if it was normal, they rarely met the resistance of the people in the Southern Dynasty, and there should be no doubt that they would continue to drive it up, even if they paid a few lives, they would have to beat the resistance of the Southern Dynasties, so that they would never dare to resist again, only before the banner of the grassland wolves, trembling, Choices to be held back!
On the way south, it was not without the spontaneous resistance of the people of the Southern Dynasty, but the grassland and miscellaneous hus frantically poured up, until all these people who dared to resist were slaughtered and their villages were burned to ashes!
But now, facing the military array standing like a wall in front of him, facing hundreds of red helmets dancing in the wind, facing the crimson military flag, and facing the blades raised like a forest, no one dared to ride a horse and rush forward!
It's the strong army of the Southern Dynasties! Surunu is a sturdy steppe man who is less than thirty, the second son of the patriarch of the clan, and is a famous hero in Monan, subduing the galloping horse empty-handed, and can immediately gallop with beads, and when the horn arrives, he can throw over more than ten steppe men one after another, and his temperament is brave and violent, and he participated in the war between the grassland tribes at the age of thirteen.
This time, following the Jurchen army to the south, after Yin Keshu entered the command of this Zahu coalition army, Su Lunu was also valued by Yin Keshu. Along the way, he was sent to lead the vanguard army and horses, let him kill and plunder, and even raised his tribe to become the largest department in Monan in the future, and ruled the Monan Zahu for the Jurchens.
Su Lunu also repaid the value of Yin Keshu with all his loyalty and bravery, rushing all the way to the front, capturing Ningyuan Village, capturing Fei Kite Fort, and seizing Luling, all of which closely led his subordinates to closely follow Yin Keshu, slaughtering all the way, burning all the way, and rushing straight to the front of Yifang County!
Today, he led a brigade to loot and slaughter in a village on the way, and was a little behind, waiting for the vanguard to arrive. I found that the two or three hundred rangers at the front had been killed, and hundreds of empty horses were galloping on the battlefield, and the ground was full of crooked and twisted corpses.
On weekdays, Surunu would have been furious and rushed forward first.
But now, from him down, every pioneer beard was in a cold sweat, and even the mounts under his crotch became docile and cowered.
In front of Luling, Surunu and this strong army of the Southern Dynasty have met! Thousands of Zahu Mountain ambushed up and down the mountain, ready to eat this lonely army of hundreds of miles to help the military horses, as a result of a battle, from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, the Zahu were killed and wounded, whether it was a mountain foot battle or a cavalry battle in the valley road, the Zahu were defeated and lost, and they had no ability to resist!
This strong army of the Southern Dynasties, regardless of the foot and horse battles, is as stable as a mountain, and the sharp is incomparable, the overwhelming rain of arrows, the ferocity of the impact of the horses, less than half an hour of joint battle, the casualties of the miscellaneous beards have been thousands, in exchange for the lives of the opponents, I don't know if there are twenty!
At that time, Surunu was also among the light cavalry brigades that attacked them in the river valley, and in that short period of time, it brought the greatest fear that Surunu had never had, and the warriors around him fell one after another. The screams were grounded, and the Southern Dynasty armor soldiers who crashed into their formation on the prancing horse seemed to be like a demon emerging from hell at that moment, and the opening of the iron face was spewing poisonous smoke and flames, and the blades wielded seemed to be several zhang long and weighed hundreds of catties. And the knights of the miscellaneous beard were crushed into powder in front of these Yaksha-like Vajra-like armorers!
Relying on the Jurchen Mouke's suppression, the Zahu people were not wiped out, and this Southern Dynasty military horse calmly walked away on the horse after harvesting hundreds of lives and leaving behind the Zahu wounded who were struggling for their lives. For the next night, even though the beards were tired and fell asleep, in their dreams, they kept flashing the hellish scene!
In the end, Yin Keshu chose to continue to go south, and attacked Taiyuan Mansion through Yifang Lou, but it was not because the main force of Zahu under his command was already frightened, and the reason why he marched west from Luling to face the Shence army in the cave valley village is!
The farther away from Luling, the farther south they went, the deeper fear of Surunu dissipated slightly, and Yin Keshu swore to them that the Southern Dynasty could fight a strong army, and that was it. As long as they copy their back road, this strong army of the Southern Dynasties has no food and grass, no way to retreat, and there are countless Jurchen armies coming to help, no matter how strong they are, there is only one way to destroy. And the scene of the soldiers and civilians of the Southern Dynasties still looking at the wind and scattering as if to continue to go south seems to prove that what Yin Keshu said is the truth.
But why did you bump into them here again?
Surunu looked at the fluttering red triangular white flame fang-side military flag, and couldn't stop swallowing his saliva, but he still felt that his mouth was extremely dry, even though he knew that the eyes of his subordinates were all on him, waiting for him to make a decision, but Surunu still couldn't say a word for a long time.
As a man who grew up on horseback, how could Surunu not know that the horsepower of the Southern Dynasty military horses that suddenly appeared in front of him was almost exhausted?
Although their array is still like a mountain, it seems that it can never be destroyed, but those war horses can't help but tremble slightly, white foam continues to flow from their mouths and noses, and the horse's belly is so deflated that the belly belt has been loosened, and behind their formation, there are no horse stakes in sight, which shows that this strong army of the Southern Dynasty has even run out of horses.
Several war horses have been ridden to such a point, what about the knights who fight in armor on the horses? Maybe with a slight bump, their array will collapse, and they no longer have the strength to fight!
Behind these arrays of Southern Dynasty warriors, there were thousands of Southern Dynasty people who slowly retreated eastward, all of which were good raw materials, men could be used to herd horses and sheep, there were fields to cultivate grain for the beards, women could milk sheep and horses, they could sew and wash, and they could be allowed to ravage. There are also the soft goods they carry, these thousands of people looted them, so that a small tribe can live comfortably for a few years.
Not to mention that the county town on the flanks of these knights seems to be bigger than the county town they passed through, at this moment the gate of the county town is closed, obviously the people in the city don't even have the courage to fight, as long as they defeat this Southern Dynasty military horse in front of them, they can easily break through this county town, before Yin Keshu and Jurchen Mouke arrived, Su Lunu can kill and loot in this county town happily!
Just dare to rush forward!
Surunu's palms were full of cold sweat, his fists couldn't help clenching and opening, and the sporadic Zahu kept joining his queue, and when he saw the sight, he also didn't move forward, and they all waited for Surunu's orders.
Su Lunu couldn't help but look back, trying to find the courage in his subordinates to encourage him to give the order to rush forward, but in the faces and eyes of these knights, he only saw cowering and hesitation, and many people lowered their heads in the face of his gaze.
Although the battle in front of Luling was short. However, when he made it suddenly with superior forces, he was finally beaten with heavy casualties, and this fear was all awakened after encountering this strong army of the Southern Dynasties!
After a long time, Surunu finally lowered his head, waved his hand and ordered: "Retreat first!" Wait for the Jurchen army to arrive! ”
Under the order, Surunu only felt that so many sons under his command seemed to be relieved from the bottom of his heart!
Surunu gritted his teeth.
"This battle is a war between the Jurchen nobles and the people of the Southern Dynasties, so let's just follow the looting, why fight so many lives? We have made enough contributions to the Jurchen nobles! ”
In the west, the more and more they gathered, and when they confronted each other, they saw that they had gathered the number of six or seven hundred horsemen, and these horsemen with mixed beards had changed into the standard blades of the Great Song Dynasty, and the sacks were full of arrows in the Song army. Many of them also wore the armor of the Song army, and the outside was wrapped in looted silk clothes.
On weekdays, how could such a miscellaneous person be in Zhou Tai's eyes?
The elite commander under his command can beat these miscellaneous husks to collapse with just one impact, not to mention cutting off one or two hundred heads and snatching one hundred and ten war horses back!
But now, Zhou Tai has no chance of being able to defeat them.
It's too tired, it's too tired, it's not as big as four or five thousand people in Zahu, you can take turns as the forward, take turns to rush south, Zhou Tai, the commander of the cavalry, gritted his teeth and rushed back and forth, these days, I haven't eaten a good meal or slept once!
Every joint in his body seems to be moaning, sweat seems to be dry, his head is buzzing, his eyelids seem to be pressed against Mount Tai, he will close at any time and can no longer open them, everything in front of him has been ghosted, and the sound of his heartbeat is so dense that it seems to be beating a drum, buzzing and roaring in his ears.
Beside him, Brother Paoze, there is also a heavy breathing sound, thinking that these loyal and brave brothers are the same as their own!
Zhou Tai didn't know how he got his strength, and he was still holding the horse lance steadily. The corner of his eye swept over, and in the blur, he could see the left and right sides of his body, and those spears and horse lances stretched out like a forest were also stretched out steadily!
At this moment, Zhou Tai only felt that his eyes were a little hot.
Straight lady thief, Tartar blood is splashed in the eyes?
King Jin He is fortunate to run such a strong army, how fortunate he is to be in such a strong army!
Tartars, rush up, it's nothing more than death! But these brothers, even if they die in battle, they will form an army under Jiuquan and kill all your ancestors!
I don't know how long this wait lasted, but the knight of Zahu still reined in the distance of a powerful attack from the cavalry. Hesitating, hesitating, and cring, they had not moved a single step forward before such a tired formation, and at last, the poignant trumpets sounded, and the knights turned around and slowly retreated to the west!
On the top of Yifang County, Guan Sheng held on to the battlements, together with the defenders and civilians in the city, staring blankly at everything that was happening in front of him, looking at this mountain-like Great Song army formation, and watching those miscellaneous knights retreat timidly.
Cheers erupted suddenly, resounding through the city!
Guan Sheng slapped the battlements vigorously and ordered loudly: "What are you waiting for? Remove the bricks and stones of the city gates, and let the Shence army enter to rest! Straight mother thief, we also have good men in the Song Dynasty! Zhou Tai and hundreds of sons insisted until those miscellaneous knights retreated, and insisted until the fleeing people were out of sight for a long time, and then slowly walked towards the city gate of Loufu County.
As soon as he entered the city gate, Zhou Tai and his horse fell down violently, and the faithful mount had exhausted the last bit of strength, and once it fell, it was out of breath.
Guan Sheng, who was waiting respectfully at the door, hurried to help Zhou Tai, but unexpectedly, Zhou Tai jumped up and glared at the crowd that surged up.
"Good life buried my mount! It's a hundred times stronger than any other bird! After this sentence was explained, Zhou Tai closed his eyes and fell backwards, snoring loudly before he touched the ground. (To be continued.) )
